While Tablet PC software isn't something we typically cover, this particular offer is hard to ignore. EverNote is offering a free license to either EverNote Plus, or ritePen 2.5 (a Tablet handwriting recognition utility) for a sample of your handwriting. And although the offer in and of itself is quite interesting, to me what I found most interesting was the list of sentences that users must submit to meet the qualifications for the free offer. Here's the list:- Sympathizing would fix Quaker objectives.
- Pack my box with five dozen liquor jugs!
- The July sun caused a fragment of black pine wax to ooze on the velvet quilt.
- How quickly daft jumping zebras vex?
- Just keep examining every low bid quoted for zinc etchings...
- The explorer was frozen in his 'Big Kayak' just after making queer discoveries.
- Quick Brown Fox Jumped Over The Lazy Dogs.
- Jackdaws Love My Big Sphinx Of Quartz!
- Six Big Juicy Steaks Sizzled In A Pan As Five Workmen Left The Quarry.
- The Five 'boxing' Wizards Jump Quickly Up.
- While Making Deep Excavations, We Found Some Quaint Bronze Jewelry.
- Whenever The "Red Fox" Jumped, The Squirrel Gazed Suspiciously.
- Quick Zephyrs Blow, Vexing Daft Jim.

Most of the sentences are pangrams - they contain all 26 letters of the alphabet.

They have also included most (but not all?) letters in uppercase as well as lowercase.
Would have been fun to work out the smallest number of sentances that were required for what they wanted to achieve...

There's no program in the world yet to recognize my writing (it's hard for me to do it too). But I'll submit mine anyway.
